What does Turkish coffee stand for?

Coffee is unique to Turkey. It is said that some Turkish women use coffee to tell their fortune. After drinking, they put the thick residue on the plate, and then according to the different shapes presented by everyone, they have different fates and are arrogant. Turks say that coffee is the black enemy of sleep and love. In other words, both sleep and love can be sacrificed for coffee. Turk Kahvesi neither distills nor brews. Instead, use very fine Turkish coffee powder, add cold water, and slowly cook it in a small spoon with a small fire to make cups of bitter and thick foamed coffee. Smart Turks know that such strong coffee is harmful to health, so the porcelain coffee cups and plates used are very small, about half the capacity of ordinary coffee cups. Turks learned to drink coffee from Arabs in the16th century, and Venetian merchants who were good at trade later brought coffee to Italy when doing business with Turks. Some people even say that the origin of European outdoor cafes was brought back to Vienna by the Austrian ambassador from Istanbul.

Because the pot of coffee in Turkey needs to be cooked in cups, it is not cooked very quickly. In the past ten years, instant coffee has been losing ground, and now Turkish coffee is not served in ordinary fast food restaurants or small restaurants. The traditional coffee house in Turkey has become a local cultural feature, a place for men to chat and meet in the community, and a news dissemination center.
